Nero Li

I am a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at the University of California - Irvine in the Center for Algorithms and Theory of Computation, specializing in CS Education. I am glad to have Michael Shindler as my advisor. My research tackles the challenge of scaling effective and equitable learning in large university courses. My work includes running scalable quality checks, defining appropriate AI use, and synthesizing evidence via systematic reviews.
